Ex-SKYLARK Singer KIARA LAETITIA: 'Fight Now' Video Released

November 22, 2013

Kiara Laetitia, Italian rock singer, writer, model and actress and former frontwoman of the symphonic rock band SKYLARK, has released a video for the the title track of her new EP, "Fight Now". The clip was directed by Lyda Patitucci and Andrea Fortis and can be seen below.

The "Fight Now" EP was written, arranged and produced by Laetitia and VIRGIN STEELE frontman David DeFeis, who took a break from his numerous engagements with VIRGIN STEELE to work with Kiara. The effort, which features a cover version of VIRGIN STEELE's classic "Victory Is Mine", was recorded and mixed at The Hammer Of Zeus studios in Long Island by DeFeis while Ryan Smith (AC/DC, IRON MAIDEN, JOE SATRIANI, BEYONCÉ) took care of the mastering duties at Sterling Sound in New York City.

"This work is dark yet melodic and positive at the same time," says Kiara.

"I've been through one of the toughest moments in my life and I came out of it as a new person — stronger, I should say — and this is how the idea for 'Fight Now' came about. It's probably the most positive song and lyrics I've ever written in my entire life!

"We must never give up 'cause we just have one life and we have to make the best of it in any way we can. We gotta fight for what's important, for existence itself… That's the message."

As for the cover version of "Victory Is Mine", Kiara explains: "It's one of my favorite tracks from VIRGIN STEELE and I thought it was the right conclusion for this EP.

"Like I'm saying, 'I've been through a lot, now I'm positive about the future 'cause 'Victory Is Mine' if I want it.'

"All the bad moments in life show us that they'll pass, that we can be victorious in the end."
